Abstract:
A rodent bait station for the eradication of rats, mice and other rodents and vermin, which is safe for use around children, pets and other non-target species. The bait station includes an outer housing and an inner housing slidably movable with respect to the outer housing. The inner housing is movable between open, closed, and extended positions. When the inner housing is in the extended position, poisonous bait can be loaded into the bait station. When the inner housing is in the open position, rodents can access the poisonous bait located in the bait station. When the inner housing is in the closed position, the poisonous bait is substantially sealed within the bait station. The inner housing automatically moves from the open position to the closed position in response to being lifted off a supporting surface, thereby preventing the exposure of the poisonous bait to non-target species.
